Description
1 hour from AIX EN PROVENCE, in the Alpes de Haute Provence, 15 minutes walk from the town of SISTERON with a dominant view of the Durance valley and the Pont du Buëch, come and discover this splendid property composed of a hunting lodge from the end of the 17th century of approximately 720 m2 and its many outbuildings. The bastide stands at the end of an alley lined with century-old plane trees. It consists of a rectangular central main building on 3 levels and is extended by two wings at right angles (approx. 200 m2 per level): On the ground floor: a heavy wooden door surmounted by a Tuscan cornice opens onto an entrance and a majestic staircase rising to the upper floors. A living room with fireplace, a dining room, a dining kitchen. A corridor joins a secondary hall serving a professional kitchen opening onto a terrace, a billiard room, a bedroom, a water point and a laundry area. You will be seduced by the beautiful height under the ceiling (3.18 M), its molded walls and doors, its floor tiles as well as its floor tiles with garnet cabochons. On the 1st level: a library area. A suite with a private lounge, a bedroom with a balcony and a breathtaking view of the Citadel and its adjoining bathroom. A master suite with private lounge, 2 bedrooms, walk-in shower room. On the 2nd level: a partial renovation has been made (water supply, electricity and heating): finishing works are therefore to be planned to fit out this space, formerly intended for servants, which will allow you to fit out to your taste 8 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. On the basement floor: a succession of vaulted cellars, an old sheepfold and a greenhouse preserve the authenticity of the place and allow access by a stone staircase on the banks of the Durance. Outbuildings: to the east, a 4 room caretaker's house is attached to the main building and requires updating. A barn of approx. 200 m2 houses agricultural equipment, a chicken coop and 4 horse boxes/stables can be rehabilitated into a reception room. The park extends over more than 5 hectares and offers an old basin classified as a historical monument as well as a pond. Many possibilities.

The exchange rate on the day you make an offer on your property in France will not be the same as the rate you pay when you complete on your purchase, as currency markets move constantly. Any large rate movements may take it beyond your price range as the chart above illustrates the fluctuation and how much extra your property could have cost you.
The best way to avoid this significant risk is to plan your budget and currency strategy with an experienced currency specialist. They have been known to save you up to 4% compared to many high street banks, £4,000 for every £100,000, which soon adds up. They will also keep you up to date on market movements, help you set a rate in advance with a product called a Forward Contract - so you know exactly what you will pay for your property in sterling.
This is why we recommend Smart Currency Exchange Ltd. If exchange rate movements continue to be as unpredictable and as significant as they have been in the past then by not using Smart Currency Exchange Ltd your property could cost you £44,462 more.
